You are the minister of defense in a new country in buttfuck nowhere, you are given the choice to procure arms for your armed force, what would it be?

objectively the best course of action. If these gunsmiths can make quality clones out of scrap, imagine what they can do with actual resources at their disposal.

Rifle: Set up deal with Norinco for AKs in 7.62x39 and contact arms dealers for whatever quality ones they can get to stockpile to arm the citizens should need arise.
Pistol: Set up deal with Norinco for Maks.
Shotgun: Set up deal with Norinco for those Hawk 982 shotguns.
LMG: Norinco made RPKS.
GPMG: Convince Norinco to rip off PKMs.
Buy tooling to manufacture ammo.
Don't invest in armor beyond troop transports, but in man portable anti armor solutions, MANPADs, and squad portable mortars. Instead of having my soldiers waste time on random tasks, put them to work building disgused fortifications and trench systems, tunnel systems, and use a good portion of funds from cost saving measures on projects to keep morale as high as possible like sports, movies, music, hobby activities, whatever.
Boom.

You don't understand how this works. Go through this list from top to bottom in order of importance:
1. Country of origion is your benefactor
2. Company from (1) is willing to give kickbacks
3. In addition to (2), they are willing to obscenely mark up the prices so that you can pocket the difference
4. Quality, usability, effectiveness of the weapons etc etc

I like this idea. Might even make em chambered in obscure superperformance rounds like:

Glock would never agree to that.
Might as well just make a locally produced copy of the BHP as you dont need a license and it is prolific.

Primary service rifle is a big question. I might say the AKM, or the Galil. Both are chambered in common rounds and are decent enough weapons, although Sig 550 would also be a reasonable choice, given it's extended range in spite of using an intermediate cartridge. Designated marksmen might carry a G3 or M14. For snipers, perhaps SVDs or Rem 700s. A good standard issue sidearm, maybe Browning HP or a Sig P220 in 10mm auto. Light machine guns, I might say Russian penis kitty.
